Advice for new writers
Hey everybody.
Ally here. I think I’d like to do a post with advice for writers (something I do from time to time–check the archives to read them.)
So if any of you are writing–or would like to write–please leave your questions in the comments section. Next week I will answer my favorites.
Oh, and it makes my job much easier if you don’t ask more than two questions at a time.
thanks!
ALLY

Magnificent Monday
Hey Everyone!
It is FINALLY warming up here and the sun has been shining! It is starting to feel like Spring is around the corner! Spring is my favorite season. I love getting outside and planting flowers and playing in the backyard with my family. Which got me wondering….
What is your favorite season? Why?
What do you like to do in that season?
What is your least favorite season? Why?
Do you read more in a particular season?
Hope everyone has a great day!
xoxo,
Shellie

What’s new with Ally
Hi everybody!
Sorry I didn’t post last week. I’m afraid I got pretty sick with one of the flu-like plagues that is going around. I don’t think I had “The Bad Flu” but I had something. And I’m just now able to sit upright without my sinus cavities wanting to explode, so I’m counting that as a win.
(It says a lot about me that sitting upright now constitutes “winning”.)
But I am. And it does.
What else is going on?
Well, a few things, actually.
WATTPAD
Are any of you members of wattpad? Well, I am! I...

Hi Everyone!
In honor of Perfect Scoundrels coming out in paperback and because it is Valentine’s week I have a Kat & Hale cryptogram for you to work on!

For those of you who have never solved a cryptogram puzzle before, the rules are simple… It is basically a secret code where different numbers, symbols, or in this case, letters, represent a different letter.
I will hold all comments with answers for 48hrs to give ev...

Magnificent Sudoku Monday
Hi Everyone!
It is another snow day here in Tulsa! I thought a fun Sudoku game would be the perfect way to pass some of the time while drinking my hot chocolate. I made a Sudoku puzzle out of Gallagher Girls book covers…… just go to this link: http://www.picturesudoku.com/u.php/2911
Directions are on the site if you are having trouble.
Have fun and see you next week!
xoxo,

Embassy Row Fun Facts
Hello, everybody! Ally here to tell you a little bit about Embassy Row. (Since I know many of you are dying for any information…even if that information is relatively small.)
So let’s get started, shall we?
I’m confused. What is Embassy Row? Is it the seventh Gallagher Girls book?
Embassy Row is the first book in an entirely new series. No Cammie. No Kat. No Gallagher. No thieves. This will be 100% never-before-seen-material. And I am SUPER excited about it!
So what is Embassy Row about?
When a te...
